The Tonight Show with Conan O'Brien - Page 5 - OOTV -- Two Plus Two Poker Forums

why would you post this?

the only reason i would ever watch conan is in hopes that in the middle of one of his goofy dances, he falls on his face, breaks his jaw, and is unable to talk.

really. i cant stand him. i would rather watch a talk show hosted by paris hilton before i would watch conan.

Thanks for stopping by!

But the skit itself kind of dragged and never had me cracking up or anything. Most I laughed was when he shouted at the plane I guess but it didn't exactly have me cracking up. The shy/awkward/goth girl was almost funny a couple times I guess but nothing of the "OMG...that's the most hilarious thing ever" type of reaction that I guess some people have.

ugh... it is not even a skit.

it is a bunch of people with nothing better to do than play dress up for a day..... with conan running around and being his obnoxious self while making jokes that are so lame that he cannot even get laughs from people who have nothing better to do than to play dress up all day.

Tell me I'm not the only one who is absolutely infuriated by Conan's hair consistently sticking up 3 inches for the last 15 years.

Didn't see it last night, but watching the monologue tonight it doesn't seem like they are giving Conan enough room, too much broad topical humour and not enough of Conan being Conan imo.

Yah, not enough Conan being Conan, which is the main appeal for me. Also, I may be in the minority, but I wish they'd just get rid of Andy and if Conan interacts with anyone, make it Max or the bald dude in the band.

Even if you are exaggerating a bit, this statement makes you lose any credibility you may have had.

I think he is pretty tight with conan so as long as he doesn't do something stupid in his personal life I think he has the gig for as long as he wants it.

Why on earth did they have Will Ferrel on the first night instead of Tom Hanks?

Tom Hanks is annoying as hell. I don't remember him being this in your face in year's past. He was on Letterman last week and I wasn't entirely sure he hadn't been drinking.

Edit: P.S. - For any of you that are Will Ferrell fans, like myself, he's on tonight's new episode of Man vs. Wild. The re-run begins at 12 am CST on Discovery or whatever channel that show is on. Apparently they went to Sweden.

Because I think the stuff Ferrell says is actually funny. I don't find the Ron Howard impersonation or screaming out the names of 15 different Star Trek episodes funny.

And they got the mixing right tonight for Green Day. Pearl Jam sounded so bad there was nowhere to go but up, but Green Day sounded good. The second half of tonight's show was leagues better than last night's second half.
